Converting from AT&T VOI/Wifi Internet phone service to AT&T Advanced Phone AP-A.

We are switching from AT&T VOI/Wifi Internet phone service to the cellular based AP-A system.  The AT&T wi-fi/phone router is connected to the home wall jack providing service to two other wired phones.  Can the new AP-A system also be plugged into the same home wall jacks.

Here's the setup link and watch the video. It will tell you if you want to use the homes existing wiring to call for a professional installation. My opinion, I have a Verizon wireless home phone that said the same thing. If you know what you're doing and are positive nothing else is connected to the homes wiring, such as the old wiring at the NID from the phone company, or anything that is supplying battery to the inside wire than yes, you can go from the phone port to the homes wiring. If you're not sure call to have an AT&T tech do it. Might want to read through this topic and check the links.
